DU POLL: Do you think republicans are trying to spark another civil war? I base this on

the "old" republicans versus the "new republicans. When one stops and looks at what they are trying to do it's damn strange. I'm not saying all of the GOP is that way, but I sure wonder about some of the GOP.

Parts of the Tea Party might think they would enjoy it. But the Republicans? No way.

Which part or chapter? Do you have any articles or news with statements to this effect?
I'm sure there is a militant group of some sort out there but from the Teaparty? I haven't heard anything stronger than how clean they leave their protest areas.

The difference between pigs and people is that when they tell you you're cured it isn't a good thing.

That's just from reading people's comments on the Tea Party page on Facebook. You can't always tell what they mean, I admit. One person posted this morning that "Obama is a trader!!!!!!!!" I'm sure he is; lots of people are. It's an international economy, so international trade is important.

You can find that on their facebook page very easily; it was posted there today. I'm not saying it's official group policy; I'm saying that's a comment from one of their supporters. And that one is positively Einstein compared to some. :)

Since you're a member, ABC, I'll ask you - with two Senate seats newly opened up this week for 2014, do you think the Tea Party will run someone who can be elected, like a Ted Cruz, or someone who is "ideologically pure" like a Sharron Angle?
